1, why does the author tell us not to be afraid to ask stupid” questions?

The author thinks that many apparently na?ve inquiries like why grass is green, or why the sun is round, or why we need 55,000 unclear weapons in the world- are really deep questions. He says when you try to get the answers; you will gain deep understanding of the things. It’s also important to know, as well as you can, what it is that you don’t know, and asking question like the way, he also tells us to ask “stupid”questions requires courage on the part of the asker and knowledge and patience on the part of the answerer, and don’t confine you learning to schoolwork. Discuss ideas in depth with friends, it’s much braver to ask questions even when there’s a prospect of ridicule than to suppress you questions and become deadened to the world around you.

2What are the factors to shift the hero-worship to the celebrity worship?

The new forms of media-photography, moving pictures, radio and television are the main factors.

The reproduction of photos in newspapers turned famous people into celebrities whose dress, appearance, and personal habits were widely commented upon. Slowly the focus of public attention

began to shift away from

knowing what such people

did to knowing what they

looked like.

The shift was accelerated

by the arrival of moving

pictures. Between 1901 and

1974, 74percent of the

magazine articles about

famous people were about

political leaders, inventors,

professionals, and

businessmen. After 1922,

however, most articles were

about movie stars

With the arrival of

television, the faces of the

stars became as familiar as

those we saw across the

breakfast table. We came to

know more about the lives

of the celebrities than we

did about most of the

people we know personally.

Less than seventy years

after the appearance of the

first moving pictures, the

shift from hero-worship to

celebrity- worship was

complete.

3 what is the Americans’

attitude towards time? Give

necessary examples.

In the United States, many

people keenly feel the

shortness of each life-time.

They are aware that once a

day in their life is gone, it

will never come back. And

Americans believe no one

stands still. If you are not

moving ahead, you are

falling behind. So they

value time and want every

minute to count.

This attitude towards time

is shown in the fast pace of

life in the

country .whatever they do

they always seem to be in a

rush. You find people

hurrying to get where they

are going. They hurry to

eating places for a meal and

finish it as quickly as

possible.

Also Americans do what

they can to save time. They

produce a lot of

labor=saving devices such

as clothes-and dish-washers.

They rapidly communicate

through phone calls.

Telex-and email and cut

down on personal contacts.

4can you imagine what did

barrette think of when he

heard Snyder’s whisper

“take over ,bos’n?

Because of thirst, barrette

was almost out of mind. He

rose several times and was

a constant threat. But he

heard Snyder said “take

over, bos’n ,he had a

strange feeling suddenly.

He came to realize he

would and must take over

the task and be responsible

for the rest. As long as he

stopped others from the

little water, they would

always have hopes and

wouldn’t die soon. So he

picked Snyder’s gun up and

decided to hold off the

other from the water until

night when a ship saved

them.

5why parents overindulge

their children?

There are several reasons to

explain why parents

overindulge their children.

One fairly common reason

is that parents who both

hold down full-time jobs

may feel guilty about the

amount of time they spend

away from their children

and may attempt to

compensate by showering

them with material

possessions. Other parents

overindulge, because they

want their children to have

everything they had while

growing up, along with

those things the parents

yearned for but didn’t get.

Still others are afraid of say

no to their children’s

endless requests for toys for

fear that their children will

fell unloved or will be

ridiculed if they don’t have

the same playthings their

friends have.

6what are four stages that

people go through when

they experience situations

that are very different from

those to which they are

accustomed?

Stage one is a honeymoon

phase, which the new

experience is perceived to

be interesting, picturesque,

entertaining ,and charming.

You may notice several

superficial differences such

as music, food and clothing,

and the fresh appeal of the

new experience keeps you

feeling interested and

positive. When you stay in

a new environment for a

while, you move to stage

two-the crisis stage- in

which the shine wears off

day to day realities sink in.

in relationship, you notice

annoying habits in a new

country , you few polite

phrase. If you stick with the

experience and try to deal

with it realistically you will probably move to the third phase: recovery. In recovery, you learn the systems, procedures, language or nonverbal behaviors of the new environment so that you can cope with it on the basis of some mastery, competence, and comfort. Finally, when you feel that you function well and almost automatically in the new culture, you will move to the fourth phase: adjustment.

7suppose you are the millionaire. Explain how you get to know Hughie Erskine and what you do in return for the pound he gave you when you first met.

I’m baron hausberg. I have enough money to buy the whole of London. One day, on a whim I asked my artist friend Alan Trevor to paint me as beggar. Alan had almost finished the picture when a very charming young man walked into his studio. I suppose he must have been very sympathetic with me. For when Alan was away a minute, the young man quickly put a pound into my hat. I was startled for a moment, but I was please when I realized that he took me for a real beggar.

Later I learned from Alan all about this young man: he was poor, and could not marry the girl he loved because her father wouldn’t let them unless he had 10,000pounds. Touched by the young man’s spirit of

kindness, I decided to help

him. The next day I had a

cheque for 10000pounds

delivered to him as a

wedding gift.

8retell the story “the model

millionaire in about 150

words, concluding your

retelling with a

one-sentence comment.

Hughie Erskine was a

charming young man who

was in love with a nice girl

called Laura Merton.

Laura’s father made it clear

to Hughie that he would not

marry his daughter to him

until Hughie had the

thousand pounds.

One day, Hughie went to

see his artist friend Alan

Trevor in his studio. There

he found his friend painting

a beggar, who was an old

man in rags, Hughie felt so

sorry for the poor model

that he gave him the only

pound he had.

The old model was actually

a millionaire, when he

heard all about Hughie and

Laura, and their problem,

he had a cheque for ten

thousand pounds delivered

to him the very next

Day. The couple was

happily married, and the

“beggar” attended their

wedding.

The story shows that a

genuine millionaire is not

who has, but who gives.

9the author got a solution

finally. What was the

solution? Was it risky?

He laid out the diaries in

two big steel suitcases, over

them he placed a number of

his broadcast scripts, each

page of which had been

stamped by the military and

civilian censors as passed

for broadcast. On top he put

a few general staff maps he

had pick up from friends.

then he phoned the Gestapo

headquarters to say he had

a couple of suitcases full of

his dispatches, broadcasts

and notes that he wanted to

take out of the country. As

he was flying off early the

next day, there would be no

time for Gestapo officials at

the airfield to go over the

contents, could they take a

look now, if he brought

them over, and if they

approved, put a Gestapo

seal on the suitcases so he

wouldn’t be held up at the

airport? Yes it was risky. He

thought life in the third

Reich had always been

risky. It was worth a try.

10decribe the situation that

“I saw the old washwoman

for last time.

One evening ,while mother

was sitting near the oil

lamp mending a shirt, the

door opened and a small

puff of steam, followed by

a gigantic bag, entered the

room. I ran toward the old

woman and helped her

unload her bag, she was

even thinner now, more

bent, her head shook from

side to side as though she

were saying no. she could

not utter a clear word, but

mumbled something with

her sunken mouth and pale

lips.

After the old woman had

recovered somewhat, she

told us that she had been ill

badly. But as soon as she

was able to stand on her

feet once more, she began

he washing. She said I

could not rest easy in my

bed because of the wash.

the wash would not let me

die. I don’t want to be a

burden on anyone!

11why was Andrew

Carnegie so proud of the

one dollar and twenty

cents- the first pay he

brought home?

Carnegie was very proud of

the one dollar and twenty

cents he earned for the first

time in his life when he was

only twelve, the money,

though small in

amount ,meant a great deal.

First ,when he got his first

pay he felt that he had

grown up. He way no

longer a boy who had to

depend on his parents; he

had become a man who was

able to help support the

family. A contributing

member. This was

important because at that

time life was hard for the

family and it was difficult

for his parents to manage

alone.

Also he thought the money

was the direct reward of

honest manual labor. It

represented a week of very

hard work. This money

gave him the greatest

satisfaction of being

rewarded for what he had

done.

12why did Rachel Carson

write the “silent spring

“what’s the conent of it?

Because she felt that the

wonders of nature are precious and permanent, and much of nature was forever beyond the destruction of man. But then she discovered she was wrong. She learned with sadness that little in nature is truly beyond the “tampering reach of man”then, she wrote the book silent spring to sound a startling warning to mankind and the book showed quite clearly that man was endangering himself and everything else on this planet by his indiscriminate use of chemical pesticides. As her title suggests, miss Carson was saying that there might come a springtime that would indeed be silent because the birds. As well as other creatures, and plants would have been destroyed by the man-made poisons used to kill crop-threatening insects.

13in the story “who shall dwell? How did the father’s attitude towards the neighbors change? What brought about the change. When the bomb alert came, the father was clear that he had built the shelter for his own family, and that he would not le anybody else in. so when his neighbours came and asked to share the shelter he rejected them flatly. When a mother begged him to take her little girl in, he did not know what to do. At that moment his wife dashed outside and pushed the girl in. her act set him thinking hard. Just a

moment before the first

bomb struck he made a big

decision. After giving his

elder son a few instructions,

he stepped out and shoved

two children into the shelter.

He stood beside his wife,

ready to spend the last

minute with her.

His change seemed sudden,

but was actually quite

natural. He loved his

children, so he was greatly

affected by the mother’s

plea and gave the chance of

survival to the two children.

Also his love for his wife

led him to follow her

example.

14describe cliff evans’life

before his sudden death

Cliff evans lived with his

mother, stepfather and five

younger half brothers and

sisters.

His stepfather had never

legally adopted him,nor did

he show any affection for

him. At home cliff didn’t

talk much and had never

told his family about his

problems.

When he began school, he

was timid but eager to learn.

And his iq was pretty good.

Then in the third grade a

teacher worte in the school

record that he was

uncooperative and slow.

Since then he had never got

any encouragement from

his teachers, gradually, the

child had no more

confidence left. He never

smiled nor talked much. He

had no friends:he had never

belonged to a club, never

played on a team and never

held an office. He came to

school by himself and left

by himself. In class, he

would sit back in the last

seat. Finally he became

silent and lonely. He

became nothing.

15what are the major forms

of bribery?

Bribery can be classified

into three broad categories.

The first category consists

of large amounts of money

paid for political purposes

or to secure major contracts.

For example, a certain

American company offered

big sums of money to

support a us presidential

candidate when it was

under investigation. Also in

order to get big contracts,

such payments are often

made to ruling families or

their close advisers.

The second category

covers payments made to

botain quicker official

approval of some project.

In such cases, the money is

often paid to key

government officials

concerned.

The third category involves

payments made in certain

countries to make a

business deal easy to get

approved, for instance, a

foreign company may pay

to get permission to import

equipment. A common type

of this category is the

“facilitating payment”to

clear cargoes. These are

smaller sums of money paid

to customs officials.

16what do you know about

randy ad carole in “a social

event? Why are they

anxious to get invited to

scotty’s funeral.

Randy and carole are a

young Hollywood couple.

They have been married

only a short time. Both

have achieved a certain

degree of success in

pictures, but their careers in

the snow business are still

in the promising stage.

Scotty Woodrow, a

world-famous moive star

has just died, and randy and

carole are anxious to go to

his funeral, which will be a

gathering of celbrities and

is regarded as a big social

event. It is said that flowers

have come from the us

president and the birtish

queen

Randy and carole think it is

extremely important for

their career to be seen there

with a lot of big shots. But

they haven’t got an

invitation while some of

their Hollywood friends,

actors and actress like

theselves, have been invited.

That’s why they are worried

and are trying hard to find

ways of getting themselves

invited in the last minute.

1illustrate with examples

the basic ingredients of

good manners Dr . peale

mentions in his article”

courtesy”

Dr. peale lists three things

as the basic ingredient of

good manners: a strong

sense of justice, the ablity

to share another person’s

inner feelings and the

capacity to treat all people

alike.

Once a man was driving

along, narrow and dusty road ahead of another car. Suddenly he stopped off the road and told the driver of the car behind to get ahead of him. He did not want the other person to put up with hid dust all the way. This is a man with a strong sense of justice.

A courteous person can also understand the pain or unhappiness of others. He\she offers help without hurting the feeling of the other person because he\she shares their emotions as if they were his\he own. Finally , a person with good manners treats all people alike, whether they are plain citizens or big shots. He\she never asks whether the other person deserves their good manners.

2how did mr. fotheringay discover his unusual powers and how did he take advantage of them?

It was while he was trying to prove the impossibility of miracles that mr. fotheringay discover his extraordinary powers.

He was having a drink in a bar, a person called toddy opposed everything he said, this made him very angry. He wanted to show toddy that the lamp there couldn’t burn upside down without breaking no matter how he wished it to do so. But as soon as he said”turn upside down without breaking, the lamp did as fotheringay had just said.

Back at home he experimented with his magical powers and came

to see that he could with

things. The next day he

began to take advantage of

this unusual power. By his

will he first got a fresh

gooes-egg for breakfast. In

the same day he got the

whole day’s work done in

10 minutes

He also created a number of

useful things and increased

his personal property.

3how did mr. fotheringay’s

attitude towards changes?

Mr.fotheringay didn’t

believe In miracles until he

was thirty years old. It was

while he was assertiong the

impossiblity of miracles

that he discovered his

extraordinary powers. One

day ,when he was having a

drink in a bar, toddy

beamish opposed

everything he said, so he

decided to make an unusual

effort.he tried to illustrate

what was a miracle by

giving a special example,

that is, to make a lamp

upside down and go on

burning steadily without

falling. To his great surprise,

what he said came ture.

Everyone was astonished at

it. They all didn’t believe it,

after going back home, he

tried his will power. He

succeeded in getting a

match and lighting the

candle with his will power.

He wondered at his will

power. Then he tried to get

himself a nightshirt. Lay

and cook a goose-egg,

Do one day’s work in ten

minutes, make walking

stick blossom, and sent the

policeman to hades, then to

san franciso by using his

will power. In the end he

left delighted even thouth

he understood that the gift

required caution and

watchfulness.

4what did kaz see on that

day?

When she saw a b-29

bomber approaching, it

didn’t frighten her, because

she thought Hiroshima was

the only peaceful city

during the war.but, then,

kaz saw the bomb falling

away from the plane and

drifting down towards her.

The journery took 43

seconds. A loud explosion

reverberated in the air. A

mushroom cloud rose over

the remains of the city. Kaz

was thrown to the ground

so wiolently that her two

front teeth broke off. She

lost consciousness. When

she came to herself. She

found there was a dead

silence around, broken only

by the cries of the dying.

Their house crashed down.

Her father had the front of

his body burnt. When her

brother came back.she

could barely recongnize

him through his wounds. As

night fell, she and he

brother made for the

mountains to look for a

friend of kaz’s who offered

to take them in. there kaz

looked back and saw the

city on fire. She left he

brother behind and ran

down the hillside towards

the flames for her parents.

The streets were filled with

the dead and the barely

living.

5how did the wades

celebrate the Christmas?

Several days before

Christmas, they’d gong

down to their ouw little

farm. They had cut a tree in

their own woods. They had

eaten and slept, and read by

the light of oil lamps. The

children had been more

than satisfied with their

presents, there had been

balls, erector sets, a number

of story books, and a lot of

junk from the five-and –ten

for the boys, and for laura,

a picture Emily had found

cheap in a second-hand art

shop and small brooch that

had brightened

everything.whether she was

chopping wood, or romping

with her brothers,

Or basting the turkey, or

talking politics very

sensibly with her father,

she’d seemed to radiate

happiness. On new year’s

eve , they had given her a

weak highball, the first

she’d ever had, and she had

gong to sleep sitting on the

floor with her rosy

cheek against henr’s knee.

The family all had a very

wonderful time!

6what is the characteristics

of Britan’s landscape that

goes with variety?

With variety goes surprise.

Ours is the country of

happy surprise. You have

never to travel long without

being pleasantly astonished.

It would not be difficult to

compile a list of such

surprises that would fill the

next fifty pages. But I will

content myself with suggesting the first few that occur to me. If go down into the west country, among rounded hills and soft pastures, you suddenly arrive at the bleak tabelands as if the north had left a piece of itself down ther. But before you have reached them you have already been surprised by the queer bit of marshland, as if a former inhabitant had been sent to Cambridge and had brought his favorite marshland walk back from college with him into the west.

7 in the author’s opinion, what does love mean? Love means that I know the person I love. Love means that I care about the welfare of the person I love. Love means having respect fro the dignity of the person I love. Love means having responsibility toward the person I love. Love means growth for both myself and the person I love. Love can tolerate imperfection. Love is freeing. Love is expansive. Love means having a want for the person I love without having a need for that person in order to be complete. Love means identifying with the person I love. Love is selfish. Love involves seeing the potential within the person we love.

8how did Phillips design an atomic bomb in his junior year at Princeton?

Phillips read over the books on nvclear-reactor

technology, general nuclear

physics, and current atomic

theory. Besides, he listened

to dyson’s explanations of

the basic principles of

nvclear physics. That

wasn’t enough.

In order to find more useful

information, Phillips went

to Washington. D. c to

search for records of the los

Alamos oproject that were

declassified fully outlined

all the details of atomic

fissioning known to the

world’s most advanced

scientists in the early

1940s.

The biggest problem

involved in the explosion of

an atomic bomb was how to

arrange the explosives

around the plutonium.

Another problem he was

faced with was which

explosives around the

plutonium, if his equations

Were correct, his atomic

bomb would explode

effectively as expected. But

he should know the exact

nature of the explosives

from du pont company.

Now ,so to speak, he

already succeeded in

designing an atomic bomb

on paper.

9 what do you think are the

advantages and

disadvantages of goading?

I think goading is a good

way to prod the children to

behave well.

In a way, goading is

positive. As human beings,

we all have the sense of

self-respect and will be

proud of our little

achievement. If there are

occasious prods in the rear,

we will in tim be conscious

of our inefficiency, and then

press ourselves to achieve

higher aims. Just as it

affected john and his cousin,

goading from time to time

can prevent children from

being proud of their little

achievement, it can make

them more modest and

prudent. The modest

receive bendfit, while the

conceited reap failure.

However, we could not say

it is without any harm.

Sometimes it might be

harmful. It may disappoint

children and cause them to

lose heart. Perhaps they

will collapse after one

setback. Therefore, only

goading itself is not enough:

it must be combined with

the proper method to carry

it out.

10what is your idea about a

true friend?

In my view, a true should

be honest, loyal and willing

to help.

Honesty in friendship

means that we should be

sincere and frank. We

should not hesitate to point

out our friends’

shortcomings and should

never try to cover up their

errors. What we should do

is to encourage and help

them in improve.

Loyalty is important if we

want the relationship to last.

We have confidence in one

another in fine weather and

in rainy days. We don’t

desert our friends when

they run into trouble. Not

do we cling to them in their

success. We share with our

friends both joy and sorrow.

True friends are the people

we can turn to in all

circumstances, as the

saying goes,”a friend in

need is a friend indeed.

They are always read to

lend a helping hand to pull

us out of tight corner.

I believe in true friendship

though true friends are not

easy to find.

11was there difference

between baker and doris?

What were their mother’s

expectations of them?

Doris was quite different

from baker in character.

Take the example of

“gumption”, baker lacked it

but enough of it for a dozen

people. What baker liked to

do most was lying in front

of the radio rereading his

favorite big little book, dick

tracy meets stooge viler. In

contrast, doris like activity.

When she was only seven,

she could carry a piece of

short-weighted cheese back

to the A &p, threaten the

manager with legal actiong

and come back

triumphantly with the full

quarter pound they’d paid

for and a new extra thrown

in for forgiveness.

Mrs. Baker expected her

son to make something of

himself.

She did not expect doris to

do the same only because

doris was a girl. The best a

capable girl could hope for

was to become a nurse or

school teacher.

12describ the baker’s

family background and their life then

It was in 1932.

The great depression, the worst time before the wolrd war two, broke out, which lasted from 1929-1933. the year 1932 was the bleakest time in ghe great depression. The great depression began in America and spread all over the European countries quickly. Also, it was the great depression that led to the second world war. Millions of peole were out of work. Many factories and landlords went bankrupt. The year 1932 was the climax of the depression. The author’s father had died two years before. Leaving them with a few pieces of sears, roebuck furniture and not much else. His family was poor so that his mother had to take his sister, doris, and him to live with one of her younger brothers, uncle allen, who had made something of himself by 1932 as a salesman for a soft-drink bottler and had an income of $30a week.

13what are the two dangers to be guarded against in old age?

One of these is too great an absorption in the past. One should not live in memories, in regrets for the good old days, or in sadness about friends who are dead. One’s thoughts must be directed to the future, and to things about which there is something to be done. This is not always easy: one’s own past is a gradually

increasing weight. It is easy

to think to oneself that

one’s emotions used to be

more vivid than they are ,

and one’s mind more keen.

If this is true, it should be

forgotten, and if it is

forgotten it will probably

not be true.

The other thing to be

avoided is clinging to youth

in the hope of finding

strength in its vitality.

When your children are

grown ups they want to live

their own lives, and if you

continue to be as interested

in them as you were when

they were young, you are

likely to become a burden

to them, unless they are

unusually insensible.

14what kind of person was

the lighthouse keeper?

I think the lighthouse

keeper was a person that

deserves our respect and

admiration.

Life in the lighthouse

seemed very simple and

dull, but he had no desire

for anything that he did not

need or anything that he did

not need or anything that

was beyong his power to

obtain. For this reason he

delined the tobacco Rudolf

offered.

Though his world was

limited, his mind was as

spacious as the ocean he

lived close to. He was kind

and generous to Rudolf a

stranger who had come to

the lighthouse to seek

shelter from the storm. He

did not know what a violin

was ad had never heard

music before, but he could

understand Beethoven’s

work Rudolf played for

him.

He was a man of few words,

and did not show much

warmth towards Rudolf, but

deep down he was greatly

attached to his guest. To

him the violin was part of

the man he wanted to know

more about, not something

he was interested in

because he had never seen

it before.

15why the author mentions

that it is impossible to

measure the importance of

Edison by adding up the

specific inventions with

which his name is

associated?

Because he thinks that

although many inventions

of Edison have been in

their effect upon modern

civilization, the total of

effect of ediso’s career

surpasses the sum of all

them. He did not merely

make the lamp and the

phonograph and

innumerable other devices

practicable for general use:

it was given to him to

demonstrate the power of

applied science so

concretely, so

understandably, so

convincingly that he altered

the mentality of mankind,.

In his lifetime, largely

because of his success,

there came into widest

acceptance the

revolutionary conception

that man could by the use

of his intelligence invent a

new mode of living on this

planet; the human spirit,

which in all previous ages

had regarded the conditions

of life as essentially

unchanging and beyond

man’s control, confidently,

and perhaps somewhat

naively, abopted the

conviction that anything

could be changed and

everything could be

controlled.

I's sad to see how few people do even though many could Lots of people eagerly campaign for the reduction of greenhouse gases,but by driving cars,they're sill contributing to the problem. You might be picturing me as an extreme environmentalist (环保主义者),but I'm not one of those teenagers who wear shirts that say "Help save the world: Recycle." Actually,my interest in exercise,health,and fitness led me to cycling. Cycling can help you lose weight,improve your health,and prevent many diseases. Cycling also carries a relatively low chance of injury. While being good for your body,bicycle commuting is also a great way to cut greenhouse gases. Many environmentalists recycle,plant tees,and drive hybrid cars (混合动力汽车),but bicycle commuting could be even more effective than all of those combined. You could cut down the amount of greenhouse gases just by commuting by bicycle a few times a week. Bicycle commuting saves money too. When you buy your bicycle and the things that usually go with it. You might be shocked by the cost. But if you think about the increasingly high gas prices, you will know for sure that you can save a significant amount each year by not driving a car. You might think that you don't have time for bicycle commuting Actually. you probably do. You could cut back on your TV time and pick up this activity. It helps you care for the environment,save money,and most importantly get fit. 1. I will write a best-selling book on cycling. ( ) A:True B:False C:Not Given 英语(二)试卷第1页(共8页)

I attended junior and senior high school, public institutions in New York and New Jersey, just after the Second World War. It seems a long time ago. ① The facilities and the skills of the teachers were probably well above average for the United States at that time.Since then, I've learned a great deal. One of the most important things I've learned is how much there is to learn, ② and how much I don't yet know.③ Sometimes I think how grateful I would be today if I had learned more back then about what really matters. In some respects that education was terribly narrow; the only thing I ever heard in school about Napoleon was that the United States made the Louisiana Purchase from him. ④(On a planet where some 95% of the inhabitants are not Americans, the only history that was thought worth teaching was American history. ) In spelling, grammar, the fundamentals of math, and other vital subjects, my teachers did a pretty good job. But there's so much else I wish 2.Perhaps all the deficiencies have since been rectified.

Unit1 A Learning, Chinese-Style Unit2 A A Life Full of Riches Unit3 A Father Knows Better Unit4 A A Virtual Life Unit5 A True Height Unit6 A A Woman Can Learn Anything a Man Can Unit1 Howard Gardner, a professor of education at Harvard University, reflects on a visit to China and gives his thoughts on different approaches to learning in China and the West. 哈佛大学教育学教授霍华德·加德纳回忆其中国之行,阐述他对中西方不同的学习方式的看法。 Learning, Chinese-Style Howard Gardner 1 For a month in the spring of 1987, my wife Ellen and I lived in the bustling eastern Chinese city of Nanjing with our 18-month-old son Benjamin while studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary schools. But one of the most telling lessons Ellen and I got in the difference between Chinese and American ideas of education came not in the classroom but in the lobby of the Jinling Hotel where we stayed in Nanjing. 中国式的学习风格 霍华德·加德纳 1987年春,我和妻子埃伦带着我们18个月的儿子本杰明在繁忙的中国东部城市南京住了一个月,同时考察中国幼儿园和小学的艺术教育情况。然而,我和埃伦获得的有关中美教育观念差异的最难忘的体验并非来自课堂,而是来自我们在南京期间寓居的金陵饭店的大堂。 2 The key to our room was attached to a large plastic block with the room number on it. When leaving the hotel, a guest was encouraged to turn in the key, either by handing it to an attendant or by dropping it through a slot into a box. Because the key slot was narrow, the key had to be positioned carefully to fit into it. 我们的房门钥匙系在一块标有房间号的大塑料板上。酒店鼓励客人外出时留下钥匙,可以交给服务员,也可以从一个槽口塞入钥匙箱。由于口子狭小,你得留神将钥匙放准位置才塞得进去。 3 Benjamin loved to carry the key around, shaking it vigorously. He also liked to try to place it into the slot. Because of his tender age and incomplete understanding of the need to position the key just so, he would usually fail. Benjamin was not bothered in the least.
